    HOLY COW!!! I wish I saw this video before sending out my first shipment. I wrapped my stuff in cling wrap and it looked like crap. No heat gun, no sealer, none of that. Just slapped on the stickers where there was loose ends. I'm already gonna get suspended and I barely started.

    Is the shrink wrap thick enough for the FBA 1.5mm requirement? Do you need to pierce the plastic to let the air out before shrink-wrapping?

    I'm having issues with finding a heat sealer/knowing which thickness of element to use as these sealer in this video tend to have 2mm elements as standard. I'm looking for a heat sealer to seal a Mylar bag, the type that isn't transparent when held up to the light/Matt silver in colour fill with a small amount of liquid (30ml) which then goes into the post and hopefully not bursting at any point. Can anyone she'd some light please? Many thanks

  • @Mark-Knudsen

    Would you recommend a sealer with a foot pedal? Also, were your bags pre-cut which allowed you to tear off the extra plastic of does your sealer have a cutter that I didn't notice in your video?

    • @fulltimefba
      @fulltimefba  4 года назад +1

      I have never used one with a foot pedal, but I don't see the need for that. Also, the heat creates the seal which can be torn off (while keeping the seal) right after you apply the heat. No need to get a sealer with a cutter.

    • @fulltimefba
      @fulltimefba  3 года назад +1

      No, the heat naturally makes it easy to peel off the excess plastic. But only right after the heat is applied. If the plastic dries, then it won't peel off.

    Yet another great video I have found.. "Molly" just came in the mail a few days ago and so excited to finally get to try her out lol! I was just wondering though how we know what heat setting for the poly bags.... it's 1 - 8 to choose from and it looked like you turned yours as high as it would go and just that for everything. Also, it appears you are using the handle "twice" to form a better seal.. is that right? Thank You so much for caring to help others! Have a Blessed Evening.

    • @fulltimefba
      @fulltimefba  5 лет назад

      Polybags come in different thicknesses, so you just need to play around with your settings on which one works best with the thickness of your bags.

    • @fulltimefba

      It activates when you press down on the sealer. And make sure your heat settings are not on zero. Other than that, you might have bought a dud.

    Could you just use a flat iron to seal the plastic? Isn't that all the sealer is anyways? Just a hot strip?

      That should work as long as the tape is strong.

    Hi there! I'm in the process of packaging a new food product using a heat sealer, but I'm having trouble getting the sealed line to be wide enough for my needs. I'm currently using a basic model and the seal line is only 1-2 mm wide, a very thin line, and even on the lowest setting, it melts through the plastic too quickly, resulting in an untrustworthy seal.
    I've considered using a non-stick barrier like Teflon to help spread the heat more evenly, but I'm not sure where to find it or what thickness would be best. Do you have any suggestions or tips on how to achieve a wider seal and one that burns through less quickly with my heat sealer? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

    • @fulltimefba
      @fulltimefba  3 года назад +1

      Is this FBA or FBM return? You can set up resotcking fees for some items on Amazon. Just search "restocking fees" in Seller Central. Otherwise, you can try to sell the item used like new (or collectible like new if a toy) to make some of your capital back on the sale.

      It's similar, but different. It's more on the industrial side (will last longer with multiple uses) rather than on the consumer side (will last ok until it breaks and can be replaced). Hope this helps.
